2Blades Foundation
Incorporated in 2004, the 2Blades Foundation is a US based charitable organization that supports programs of research and development on durable disease resistance. 2Blades delivers successful, sustainable, environmentally-friendly genetic solutions that increase the supply of safe, healthy food and improve the human condition. 2Blades bridges the gap between the laboratory and the field, translating research in durable disease resistance into practical applications. Where research identifies ways of breeding for lasting resistance, 2Blades will seek to promote their deployment in practical programs of crop improvement.
Working together with world leading scientists in plant-pathogen interactions, 2Blades has scouted and supported the most significant advances in the understanding of plant disease and immunity, as well as enabling technologies to develop disease resistant crops. 2Blades manages a portfolio of owned or in-licensed technologies encompassing specific traits and enabling technologies.
